Emma, added this and some more spottings to the mission: Seeds and seed pod.
Ashish Acacia Planifrons is different I guess the Synonyms for Subabul are: Leucaena glauca (L.), Mimosa glauca L. Acacia glauca Willd. I could not find Acacia Planifrons
Hey ashish thanks for the update, these trees are very common in India.
Same tree but little difference of flowers. I see these trees in Noida, UP.
